He is a recorder in the Manchester courts (a recorder being the first rung of the ladder on the way to becoming a proper circuit judge).
Why a cnut?
He recently presided over a case where a woman driver, speeding at more than 60mph in an 30mph zone whilst three times over the drug limit, hit a pedestrian who was left in hospital for 12 weeks (3 of which were in a coma) with a brain injury and various fractures to the skull and ankle.
According to Lazarus, he saw no evidence that the drugs had any direct impact on the woman’s driving. Really? Over 3 times the drug limit and it didn’t affect her at all? Who is he kidding? If it had been a male driver a shandy over the drink / drive limit and doing 35mph in a 30 mph zone I wonder if he would have said the same? Of course he wouldn’t.
Not only that, the dipstick has fallen for the old “mental ‘elf” issues, is now over her drug addiction and is very, very sorry sob story and refused to jail her as, unbelievably, he said prison at this moment in time is ‘very harsh’ due to covid lockdowns. Well tough sh!t. I didn’t think prison was supposed be easy. I always thought it was meant to be tough to act as both punishment and deterrent. Clearly I’m wrong.
I expect that with such a soft as sh!t attitude to criminal justice Lazarus will be fast tracked to the High Court so he can issue ASBOs to all the hard done by terrorists, murderers and organised crime gangs. That’ll teach ’em, Robert, won’t it?
